I have been experimenting with this situation and have found one additional piece of info.

OOTP creates/applies the modifiers once per year. I hand generated the modifiers once per month for my test and changed them by hand. That way it kept bringing the league stats back in line. At years end I came very close to the league-wide stats I was gunning for. I wanted a 4.00 ERA and I got a 4.02. I was shooting for a .250 BA and got .258. Pitcher SO leader had 240, the leader using the default modifiers had 426 SO's.

This is what I do during year one of a newly created game at the major league level as the default 1.000 modifiers used during an initial season always creates goofy stats. Apparently the generated default modifiers for minor leagues has a very similar problem.

So it appears a possible fix for the well documented initial seasons challenge is the same as a possible fix for the minor league problem. If one adjusts modifiers monthly rather than yearly things are looking up.

I think that is called killing two bugs with one whack of the bug killing bat.
